i just want to ask a few things...i had unprotecrted anal sex with men...i'm a gay man...not to mention the symptoms because i had almost all of it...nausea and vomiting, intense headache,,fatique, muscle and joints pains,,hives,, itchy and watery rashes for the last 7 months.(yes, for the entire 7 months, but not all comes at once,,but mostly a symptom llast for atleast 10 days....)actually it's already 8 months past...i had a oral rapid test in 3 and 6 month period...and at a 7th month i had a rapid FINGERprick test...all came back negative....however, i'm still worried whether those are reliable or not since i heard that only a traditional blood test can be realiable...also, i would like to ask that during the past 8 times period i had several sexual activity..just oral sex..so i believe that it is not right because i know that i need to stay safe without having sex in order for the test to be EFFECTIVE...however, it's just oral just...and also 1 protected anal sex recently (about 3 weeks ago...the partner got tested by rapid oral test the next day after we had sex...he came back negative...) is oral sex a very risky behaviour?? and are the tests that i had were reliable?? should i test again in october (it will mark a 1 year period....) i tested in a free medical center...so i don't know whether they are real or not..Parenthood and Altamed...i also alfred that i needle the specialist used on me to check for HIV was not clean...can she do that???? thank you so much...i waited till this time to post thing in this forum...because i want to gather all the information needed for you guys to answer this easier...thanks again and i apprecieate it....
